Bet if you offered to buy someone a Victoria Bitter you'd get some takers.  Hey Dav, if I was in Oz I'd be right there to make the ride and shout the first round.  How's the riding up in the Blue Mountains?  I have an ex-uncle that lives in Tamworth and he drove us up that way one time and it looks like it would be pretty good riding.

Saturday will suit me perfectly too.

As for where to meet - Either Wollongong way or somewhere around Sydney is fine for me. As I am moving to Coogee but for the next couple of weeks will be living in both places either is fine with me. Though I think south coast roads are generally more fun. Wherabouts is best for you? Bald hill (thats southern end of the Nasho -  yeah?)

What are your thoughts for the cruise?

 - A trip to Robertson for a pie and then to Berry for some desert? If the weather was anything like it was on Tuesday - a refreshing stop at kiama or similar could be a good option too?

As for the cruise i reckon you have picked it spot on. Should be a bloody good ride 8-). Just hope mother nature shines on the day

Sheez and I though we were exclusive - sniff!

just kidding.

It all good with me - more the merrier!

I just checked with the government weather clairvoyant. Looks like we did something good in a prior life.

Saturday Fine.

Still good on the weather front which is lucky as Sunday looks like a stinker! Still beats the forecast for SA that I heard on the Radio this afternoon.

Anyway the ol R65 is prepped - brim full of Petrol, tyres checked - ready to rock and roll.

See you in the morning.
